Is there an existing request for this feature?

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I am looking for a way to output HEX or RGB values to create traffic lights or use this for color simulations.

Describe the solution you'd like

One solution could be to output HTML or to output a PNG. Both option are already available, but doesn't work in my case, for whatever reason. I already tried to create a PNG based on a HEX color and also create a dynamic website with a single body color (HEX) via GET request to output this in an output block.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The left connector would except a RGB or HEX value. The value will be used in the traffic light or color output. With this option it would be possible to create custom traffic lights for a dashboard in a very simple way or to output colors.

In this screenshot I used orange, but depending on the input it could be every possible values, that is supported by HEX or RGB.
